We use snowflake ids, then hashids in permalinks that expand. It's beautifully simple, yet clever.

@dansup I don't understand why do you have to convert the alphanumeric string to just numbers though?

@bojanlandekic the long numbers are the keys to each video, but are long, so we convert them to a shorter alphanumeric string by leveraging a longer "alphabet" to represent the numbers more efficiently.

@dansup hmmm I sort of understand, but why is the conversion even required? Why can't the alphanumeric things be the database keys themselves? Why must they be just numbers?

@julian@activitypub.space can NodeBB actually connect to bsky.brid.gy accounts? From citiverse, I was able to follow "bsky.brid.gy_bsky.brid.gy" but not their avatars... Is there a specific procedure for doing this?

@flancia.org@bsky.brid.gy NodeBB can connect to BlueSky if you follow the bridgyfed user (as you likely did from bsky)

I would like to try out NodeBB as time permits! What would the server be about? The context didn't make it to Bluesky it seems (yet?)

@dansup great! I hope someday we’ll have re-shared images include alt-text and attributions by default, and this sounds like a good step in that direction

@dansup UI request: ability to move to next (or previous) photo in a series (when viewing one image alone). Maybe via swipe or via arrow buttons
